In Treatment of Endometriosis Endometriosis is a condition where tissue like the lining of the womb starts to grow in other places.

Eligard 7.5 mg can help control the symptoms associated with uterine fibroids such as excessive menstrual bleeding, and lower back pain, and also reduces the size of the existing fibroids. It blocks the action of the enzyme responsible for the growth of the broids. As a result, they decrease in size and also stop growing further. In Treatment of Advanced prostate cancer The prostate gland is a small walnut-sized gland that produces a fluid called seminal fluid that nourishes and transports sperm in males. The most common symptom of prostate cancer is difficulty with urination, but sometimes there are no symptoms at all. Eligard 7.5 mg Injection may decrease or stops the growth of cancer cells by decreasing the amount of testosterone (a natural hormone in males) in men.
